小说空间点的符号功能

Semiotic Functions of the Spatial Point in the Novel

小说空间点是小说家创作的源点,也是作品展开所围绕的中心点。与巴赫金时空体对小说空间表现的关注和塔尔图-莫斯科符号学派对文本空间性的强调不谋而合,亨利·詹姆斯的小说视点理论与实践,以及乔治·艾略特在其小说情节建构中所运用的单一视点有机透视缩略法,均侧重于对小说空间技巧的运用,不仅有效地服务于作者创作思想的表达,而且还凸显了小说叙事的非线性结构,使得小说的空间性得到了显著的加强。

The spatial point is the origin of the novelist＇s creation as well as the centric point around which the narrative moves on. Coincided with the focus on novelistic spatiality in Bahktin＇ s Chronotope and Tartu-Moscow School, Henry James＇ s observations about the point of view and George Eliot＇ s technique of one-point perspective not only effectively serve for the expression of the author＇ s morality, but also show the nonlinear structure of the novel＇ s narrative, thus enhancing the spatiality of the novel.
